[bobbysocks]

I just happened over to the gaijin forum and saw they have a new game coming out called Star Conflict. so if you like BoP and still have a soft spot for Star Wars...this just might be for you. here's whats out so far....

Star Conflict, a dynamic new MMO action game that puts you at the helm of a space ship to fight in the star fleet’s massive battles!

Three thousand years have passed since the first colonists left Earth. Now the galaxy is divided between the militant star empires and independent mercenary groups. In a remote corner of the galaxy—Sector 1337, the area of the dead—a world has been left behind. Here, the ruins of a great civilization of Precursors have recently been discovered. Huge factories and sprawling cities are falling into decay. Fragments of ships lie on the fields where massive battles were once fought. But there is not a living soul. Everything has been destroyed by a mysterious Cataclysm—a pulsing anomaly that burned out all life within this sector.

This doesn’t stop mankind, the new “owner” of the Universe. Mercenaries and adventurers have flocked to the sector to sift through the ruins and loot its abandoned artifacts, without consideration of the danger. Many have disappeared—including members of well-armed expeditions—but those who have managed to return have uncovered unprecedented riches. So looters continue to come here, to find the Precursors’ lost treasures—and to fight for them.

With the galaxy on the brink of war and the Precursors’ legacy at stake, elite pilots will be in high demand. Join them in Star Conflict, where a new era of space action awaits!

Key features:

A Fleet at Your Fingertrips

Oh well. Graphics look kinda cool though: http://www.star-conflict.com/en/

Maybe they'll bring it over to the XBOX/PS3 eventually?

Thanks for the info! It looks interesting, but like Rambo Rich said, lets hope it comes out for 360. Outterspace dogfights are always cool.
